Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin - Chapter 358 - 31 Cultivator Team

“The emergence of a Super Limit Level Enchanting Heart Worm poses too great of a threat,” said Yuan Xiang Palace Master. “The key reason for the fall of Yulan City this time is precisely that Super Limit Level worm.”

Luo Feng agreed.

The possibility of the city being breached from the outside was very slim.

Infiltrating from the inside? That would require a Super Limit Level entity capable of stealth! The deaths and escape of Wei Yang Palace Master and Gai Tao Palace Master were consequences of that ‘Super Limit Level’ Enchanting Heart Worm.

“So this Cultivator Team will still head to Yulan City. Using the causality between us and the Enchanting Heart Worm, they will ascertain its whereabouts,” said Yuan Xiang Palace Master. “It must be eliminated as soon as possible.”

Luo Feng smiled faintly: “My avatar is already pursuing that Enchanting Heart Worm. It’s likely almost done.”

Yuan Xiang Palace Master was briefly stunned and then smiled.

Given Luo Feng’s ability to suppress a four-on-one fight, chasing down a Super Limit Level Enchanting Heart Worm would indeed not be difficult.

“Even if you kill that Super Limit Level Enchanting Heart Worm, I guess this Cultivator Team will still make a trip to Yulan City,” said Yuan Xiang Palace Master.

“Oh?” Luo Feng was somewhat surprised.

“They are probably much more interested in you than in the Enchanting Heart Worm,” said Yuan Xiang Palace Master with a slight smile, fully understanding the thoughts of beings at their level.

******

The world was vast.

The Super Limit Level Enchanting Heart Worm became illusory and was fleeing at high speed.

“It’s over.”

Though the world was vast, there was desperation in the heart of this Super Limit Level Enchanting Heart Worm.

“The sub-worms I dispersed have all been killed by Luo Feng’s avatar. He is tracking me from behind, and I can’t shake him off.” It had no choice. When it came to escape speed, its spiritual body, though fast, could not match Luo Feng, who could teleport short distances through space.

Its sub-worm’s strength was instantly wiped out in the face of Luo Feng’s avatar. Only the mother worm could withstand Luo Feng’s pursuit.

“As soon as he brings the avatar with the Secret Treasure, I’m doomed.”

At this moment, it felt utterly powerless.

Despite sensing the enemy following closely behind, it had no way out.

“The surrounding Low Level Primordial Life Army, the few that survived, couldn’t stop Luo Feng either.”

“I knew there was only one chance to launch a surprise attack. Once it failed, it was over.”

“Not good!”

Its heart trembled.

It sensed the ‘Luo Feng’ behind it accelerating, quickly closing the distance between them.

It stopped fleeing since the speed gap was too significant, and it couldn’t escape.

Swoosh!

From a distance, it saw a figure in black with black hair emerge from the rift in the heavens, approaching quickly.

“Super Limit Level Enchanting Heart Worm.” Luo Feng looked at it.

“Luo Feng, is this your strongest avatar?” the Enchanting Heart Worm speculated.

Luo Feng nodded.

“Can you spare my life?” The Enchanting Heart Worm looked at Luo Feng. “I was captured and brought to the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm by terrifying beings among you Cultivators. Everything I did was because of their coercion.”

Luo Feng looked at it, expressionless, and extended his finger.

Luo Feng’s finger caused the heavens to split apart. It pierced through the space, appearing instantly in front of the Enchanting Heart Worm. Luo Feng’s index finger turned into a furry claw, instantly penetrating the worm’s body, and struck its Life Core.

“Buzz.”

As Luo Feng struck, an invisible attack hit his soul, confusing his senses.

“No hesitation at all?” Even in its moment of death, the Enchanting Heart Worm was unwilling. Its plea was meant to waver Luo Feng’s resolve, combined with a Secret Technique to affect Luo Feng’s perception.

If Luo Feng had wavered, under the influence of the Secret Technique, he might have genuinely thought, ‘This Enchanting Heart Worm is innocent and pitiful; there’s no need to kill it.’

The Innate Secret Technique ‘Enchanting Heart’ could affect one’s thoughts to some extent.

But Luo Feng didn’t waver in the slightest, giving it no chance.

“Phew.” After killing the Enchanting Heart Worm, Luo Feng waved and stored away its corpse.

“Compassion?”

Luo Feng’s eyes were cold.

Luo Feng knew very well when to show compassion. Being compassionate to every ‘target’ during life-and-death battles was incredibly foolish.

Cultivators and Innate Primordial Life were two opposing factions, both seeking the total annihilation of the other.

Some of the terrifying beings among Innate Primordial Life even wanted to devour the Source World! So the two factions were absolutely opposed to each other.

Absolute opposites, two factions that sought to obliterate each other. If there was compassion here, one wouldn’t have reached Luo Feng’s current level through cultivation.

“Many Cultivators have died at the hands of the Enchanting Heart Worm.” After storing the worm’s corpse, Luo Feng discovered the many Spoils of War it carried, likely from Wei Yang Palace Master and some Elders.

“With the Enchanting Heart Worm dealt with, the other three will be easier.” Luo Feng turned to look in three other directions.

He had also sent avatars to track the three remaining Super Limit Levels.

…

The vast Endless Blood Sea enveloped the expansive land, as well as the black, serpentine mountain-like creature within.

“Luo Feng, I pose no threat to you anymore, why not spare me a shred of Vitality?” The black serpentine mountain creature roared, struggling, but its resistance weakened under the suppression of the Blood Sea formation.

“Actions have consequences!” After many attempts, the giant claw within the Blood Sea finally found and shattered its Life Core within the enormous body.

This colossal mountain-like being had the strongest physical body among the four Super Limit Levels.

…

“Die——”

Amidst the Blood Sea, a massive lightning burst forth, its force shaking the heavens and even breaking through the Blood Sea, exploding completely.

The Blood Sea condensed into Luo Feng’s figure.

“Dead?” Luo Feng was puzzled. The Biomimetic Destruction Eye on his forehead opened, carefully observing all traces of causality. The causality between himself and this Thunderbolt Tentacle Creature became extremely weak, but it still existed.

“A trace of causality remains.”

“It hasn’t completely perished.”

“Its current position, I faintly feel, is very far away. It fluctuates and is impossible to pinpoint precisely.” Luo Feng was astonished.

The distance seemed as far as the edge of the sky!

And there were multiple layers of concealment, making the remaining thread of the causality line blurry and unattainable.

“This Thunderbolt Tentacle Creature likely had a fallback plan before the war,” Luo Feng thought. “Now, activating that plan, this kind of life-saving measure, I wonder which race it belongs to.”

From Divine Emperor Perfection Level to Super Limit Level.

Some Low Level Primordial Lives’ life forms change during breakthrough and gain Talent Abilities that the Leader Level lacks! Making it hard for Cultivators to identify their original race.

“Forget it.” Luo Feng gave up.

The Nine Rivers Sacred Realm has several Super Limit Levels. Since it’s impossible to track, Luo Feng didn’t dwell on it.

“Leave it to future Cultivators to handle.” Luo Feng continued his pursuit of the final Bird of Destruction.

…

The Bird of Destruction could transform into an endless aura of destruction. But all its aura was suppressed into the Blood Sea Eye within the Endless Blood Sea!

The Blood Sea Eye, residing within Luo Feng’s Secret Treasure ‘Undying Heart,’ trapped the Bird of Destruction within, rendering it inescapable.

“Something is odd.”

Luo Feng looked into the Undying Heart, observing the boundless aura of destruction within the Blood Sea Eye.

“A Super Limit Level being has completely turned into a mass of aura.”

“Its body was the hardest to annihilate, enduring dozens of my claws and still remaining strong.” Luo Feng could wipe out the Bird of Destruction with hundreds of claws, but he wasn’t in a hurry.

“Its talent in the Destruction Path is interesting.”

Luo Feng, in human form, temporarily suppressed the Bird of Destruction within the Undying Heart’s Blood Sea Eye.

“I’ll study its Destruction Path first. After that, I’ll destroy it.” Luo Feng thought. He had already reached the late stage of Divine Emperor Life and Death Dao. Naturally, he would begin attempting to reach the ‘Half Primordial Level’ in Life and Destruction Paths.

This Bird of Destruction was valuable for comprehension.

Swoosh!

Luo Feng began his journey back.

The battle at Yulan City involved five Super Limit Levels; one killed inside the city, three outside the city. The Thunderbolt Tentacle Creature might still be alive.

******

A large, ancient ship flew through the vastness of the Nine Rivers Sacred Realm, moving at great speed.

Inside the ship.

Three figures sat together, chatting leisurely.

“Latest news.” A winged woman with pristine white wings sat there, smiling. “Yuan Xiang said the new City Lord of Yulan City, Luo Feng, has killed that Super Limit Level Enchanting Heart Worm.”

“Looks like our mission is complete,” an elder flipping through a book before him said with a smile. “Even though we didn’t act, since we took the mission and the Super Limit Level Enchanting Heart Worm died within three days, we still get half the Battle Merit.”

Regardless of the reason, if the target died within three days, their team would receive at least some merit.

If the target died after three days and wasn’t their doing, they would get no merit.

“This Luo Feng is quite formidable, making a critical breakthrough, saving the city from its downfall,” remarked a young man in a red robe. “I heard he was able to hold his own against four Super Limit Levels. His strength surpasses mine!”

“I couldn’t do that. Battling four Super Limit Levels, I could at most maintain a balance,” the elder said.

“Very impressive,” the winged woman exclaimed in admiration. “He just broke through and is already this strong. He hasn’t even been to the Dark Sacred Realm yet.”

“Without training in the Dark Sacred Realm and without reaping the benefits of its unique resources, he’s already this powerful,” the elder said in awe. “If he goes to the Dark Sacred Realm, he might reach the Invincible Level.”

“Every Invincible Level being gets taken in by Senior Yuan and the others,” the young man in the red robe said enviously.

“It’s said that after being guided at the Invincible Level, they often break free from the Braided Cage. That’s another realm of existence.” The elder also showed envy.

They were beings who had mastered two Half Primordial Level Paths, their cultivation extremely advanced, yet they couldn’t claim invincibility and didn’t qualify for guidance from Senior Yuan and the others.

“Are you returning?” The winged woman smiled. “I plan to go to Yulan City to meet this Luo Feng. If he becomes invincible, there might not be an opportunity to meet him.”

“Not having visited the Dark Sacred Realm yet being this strong, he’s worth meeting,” both the elder and the young man in a red robe nodded.

They were willing to befriend someone who might break free from the Braided Cage.
